I use Logitech software (setpoint) with my g5 mouse to rebind mouse 4 and mouse 5 to 8 and 9. Is that considered a driver or disallowed as 3rd party software?


IIRC they are going with the one button press = one action rule

I see, but this doesn't address my question. I simply use standard logitech software to make my mouse 4 and 5 activate keyboard 8 and 9, so that it's easier for me to reach those control groups (I can just use my right thumb instead of moving my left hand all the way over there).

Is this allowed? :[


ermm.. how does it not answer your question?

M4-8 and M5-9 are both just one action. They obvioiusly disallow macros (multiple actions from one button press)

I get that they disallow macros (ie. one button must = one action). Are you saying that they DO allow rebinds that AREN'T macros? "Disallowing one doesn't necessarily allow the other" is my reasoning.

Thanks for responding :3.

I'm not 100% certain, but I believe that they are okay with rebinding. It was brought up in the MLG Raleigh thread.

It would be best to contact MLG support at their website though, or just play it safe and not rebind anything.

UPDATE: I believe you can do this via ingame with the Logitech drivers installed (which they will be). There would be no need to use the Logitech setpoint app, which is technically 3rd party, and not allowed.

As far as I'm aware, it's still impossible to customize hotkeys in SC2 for what ever reason, which is why I did it with my mouse's software instead. As far as I know, the only way to do it is to make a new hotkey file and put it in the appropriate folder.

I guess I won't be practicing with that anymore, though, since it's not allowed in tourneys.

Thanks for the timely responses though :3.

I am a bit confused with the mouse settings.

I use a Razer Deathadder 3500, the drivers for this mouse let me change the functions of each button. I use this to bind my thumb button to CTRL.

From what I gather from this will not be allowed. Is this correct?

Not trying to be obnoxious or anything, but I think people would be curious to hear the rationale on this.

PS2s have the potential to destroy the computers used. Although the likelihood is slim, the potential is still there, and we saw it happen in Raleigh.

Thus, we are not allowing any PS2 keyboards anymore.

Hotplugging is the issue with PS2 mice/keyboards. PS2 was NOT meant to be hotplugged and as such can be dangerous (since power is delivered from the motherboard).
